I'm just discovering Daniel Odell (also seen as Odel and O'Dell) of the Township of Clements, Annapolis County, Nova Scotia and would like to learn if anyone knows the maiden name of his wife Elizabeth, his/her/their origins and details regarding their children.   Daniel Odell, yeoman, is listed as a United Empire Loyalist and he owned some 250 acres in Clements Township when he executed his will on 16 Nov. 1813 (will said to be proved on 15 Jan 1817; I know he passed between 26 Nov. 1816, the 2nd dating of his will, and 15 Aug. 1818, when his widow petitions the court).   Daniel married Elizabeth, maiden name currently unknown to me, and, assuming Elizabeth is the mother of all of Daniel's children, they had, order uncertain: Urial Odell, perhaps the eldest son and child; Phebe Odell - Phebe married Mr. Preston; Mary Odell - Mary married Marcus Brundage; Daniel Odell [Junior]; Abijah Odell; Artemus Odell; Jacob Odell; David Odell (will proved 25 Mar. 1828); Enoch Towner Odell; Rachel Odell; Elizabeth Odell; and Maria Odell.   I have seen on the County Clerk's website for Westchester County, New York that the Odell surname is cited numerous times in the land records (but I haven't been able to get any further since the site is either under construction or tells me my computer doesn't have Java, which it does).   I haven't had any luck going to www.familysearch.org or www.novascotiagenealogy.com either.   Thank you.   Ben Moseley
